Malthouse Theatre - Day 2

Malthouse Theatre

Started work helping out on a barn conversion which has run over its completion date by quite some time.
I have allocated a few days to work on some of the carpentry as the owner is desperate to move in.
Thought I'd keep the work that i do on this blog as a record for my benefit and to clarify the work done when I put in the bill.
When there is no project manager or foreman it can be difficult to see where your time has gone.

Day 1

Moved a door frame (no picture)
Pegged up the windows

Started skirting boards in upstairs bedroom (quite difficult as none of the mitres are 45degrees)

Oak Flooring

Put down some solid Oak flooring for a customer today.
Normally I wouldn't recommend screwing the floor down but it had to match some existing flooring which had been screwed to the larger boards underneath.
Finished with a combination of oils and sealer it should look really good when the Oak ages and darkens a little.

Business for SALE

Haven't posted in a while. What have I been up to?
Well, working hard to pay the bills, waiting for payment from the BBC, trying to sort out website, done a couple of shows such as the weald wood fair.

I have realised however that I need to streamline my business as I spending too much time trying to promote different parts of the business. Marionettes are what I want to concentrate on.

I have already removed Boomerangs, Boardgames and Kites (still got a couple left in anyone's interested) from the website but still have plenty of sets of Bagogo.
As this is a great toy and I have the exclusive UK rights aswell as plenty of sets in stock I thought I might sell the lot as a going concern along with all the images I have and website and domain name.

I have it listed on Ebay to see if there's any interest, however If anyone I know wants to take it up then get in touch.



I still have a good stock of wood too so I may do a Rocking Horse promotion soon for Christmas to use it up.
